Hi,

I have been trying to switch from openwrt to freewrt, but mtd gives me an error.

I am running kamikaze r6086 on my WGT634U, but as it is in
development, I have found it is a hastle. So, I went to the freewrt
web image site (wib.freewrt.org) and downloaded a binary (ref code
1103F2C978A).

I uploaded it to /tmp on the WGT634U using wget and tried to install
it as follows:

mtd -e linux -r write
freewrt-netgear-wgt634u-brcm-2.4-squashfs-overlay.bin linux

mtd returned:

Bad trx header
If this is a firmware in bin format, like some of the
original firmware files are, you need to convert it to trx.
Image check failed.

I also tried to change its format to a trx using:

dd if=freewrt-netgear-wgt634u-brcm-2.4-squashfs-overlay.bin of=
freewrt-netgear-wgt634u-brcm-2.4-squashfs-overlay.trx bs=32 skip=1

dd returned:

50431+0 records in
50431+0 records out

But when i ran mtd on the trx i got the same error output as described above.

Does anyone know what I need to do. I noted
http://www.freewrt.org/trac/wiki/Documentation/Howto/FirmwareTutorial
states that "The mtd application automatically convert bin to trx, so
that a manual convert via dd is not necessary."

Thanks in advance...
